He is a family friend. I personally don’t know him but I know a lot of people that do. He is best friends with my friend’s kid. I think getting away from all finish will be a good thing for him hearing what my friend had to say. A team that comes and goes from any sport as fast as AF while spending the money they did is never good for the sport, I don't care what anyone says. I've heard they were pounding down Carey's door trying to get on Doo their last year and Doo wasn't have it with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teamgreen02 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 The stream quality last night was awful, almost shut it off. I hope the ISOC folks put pressure on Flo before the next event or they are going to lose their audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why televise it for free on TV or YouTube? It’s way better to charge a subscription for shit that used to be free. Of course he also likes to pay for subscriptions in his truck so the heated seats and autostart work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune46x Posted December 18, 2023 Author Share Posted December 18, 2023 Record number of entries this weekend ... too bad its dying. I am curious as to whats going on with the stream , Its not on flos end - we were watching the gateway dirt nationals in the tech trailer and it worked flawlessly which makes me wonder if its an upload issue from the tv truck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its possible since the replay on Flo still has the same issue. On Saturday night, go to 8:48:40 in the video and you will see exactly what happened.

Bwahahaha! Those are your numbers? That’s goddamn pathetic! Your idea of “healthy” and mine are far apart. The low number of entires will drop throughout the season. SnoX ain’t growing. It just dies away a little more every year. There were a bunch of teams who wanted to enter the Iron Dog but couldn’t get race sleds. That’s not my opinion, it’s what the Iron Dog race posted back in October. Pretty hard to race if you can’t get a sled. Textron has their head so far up their ass they couldn’t even get the Cataylist ready in time for sno-x. 1 hour ago, Bontz said: Ouch ...

Bontz Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I don't generally respond to anything you're involved with because of the level of pounding you take, so no real need to pile on with the others. However, I thought fortune's post was very interesting, especially knowing he's "boots on the ground" when it comes to Snow Cross and very much in the know. You? You're just a drunken wannabe who can't cut it in a race that means nothing, but you feel like it's the grand daddy of all. As far as me commenting about you and your wiper fluid consumption ... sorry, that was a low blow. We all know you still favor antifreeze.

They’ve since regrouped and got new, different sponsors and offered a record purse last year. I’ve not checked but I believe this year’s purse is similar in value. Lots of big sno-x teams shut their teams down this summer. The OEM’s have pulled support for sno-x and Cat hasn’t had a real presence in years. What’s your excuse for the two DECADE decline of sno-x?

There was no snow there and that was on the track looked like snirt. Fucking gross and pathetic. Yeah! Great marketing photos of snowmobiles running around in mud.

You do realize there was 3/4 of an inch of rain on friday right ? and warm temps all week preventing snow making and they still managed to pull off an event. I guess they should just fold so the industry gets even smaller huh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prove me wrong. You don’t have a clue what you are talking about with the Iron Dog. Just stick to what you know best, posting up every single recall and stop ride announcement that Polaris makes. Now that Textron turned Cat around to maybe, just maybe start making some money, you can’t get your panties out of a bunch since things changed in your little Kromy world.

Textron hasn't turned around jack shit, they just barely undid a small fraction of their fuckups, and let the few guys left release a sled they wanted to release 5 years ago. They are still building, and selling half the sleds AC was when they took over, and between 1/4, and 1/2 of the dirt product. Parts availability is still awful, common fast moving parts are on back order for months at a time, hell reverse motors for 12-24 4 strokes are showing n/a until after the season is over. Its nothing to do with covid, its because they fired the entire purchasing department, and replaced them with textron people, who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. Last I heard they had gone begging to try and get some of the old folks back. Edited December 20, 2023 by krom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
